Recruit Joining Pack

This is the first step in what may well be the most exciting journey that your child is going to experience during their teenage years! 


Here you will find a digital copy of our Recruit Joining Pack, with guidance for how to complete the necessary paperwork in order for your son or daughter to join the Royal Air Force Air Cadets. 

Please help us to reduce our environmental impact by using less paper; we ask that you download each of the forms provided here and complete them digitally. 
Once completed, please email them from a parent or guardian's email account to our squadron adjutant at adj.173@rafac.mod.gov.uk

The Consent Certificate

The Royal Air Force Air Cadets (RAFAC) Consent Certificate records your consent, as a parent or legal guardian, for your child to be taking part in a wide range of activities. We will still require your explicit consent for some activities, in which case we will make it clear what that activity is and what it involves.
